Chapter 1310 I Will Join the War
The flames of war had ended, but the smoke had not yet dissipated. The stench of death drifted into the sky and into everyone's nose. It was clearly time for the sun to rise, but the sunlight was reflecting blood in the clouds.

As the battlefield gradually returned to silence, short bursts of gunfire could still be heard from time to time, but this no longer attracted anyone's attention, no matter whether the gunshots were used to finish off seriously injured enemy soldiers or to kill prisoners.

The Xuanshui Federation won the battle to capture the position in front of the control center, but the casualties were not small.

About 17,000 people were killed or wounded, 5,300 were missing, 13 assault landing ships were destroyed, and nearly 100 tanks and armored vehicles were destroyed.

The results of the battle were that about 30,000 enemies were annihilated, 11,000 were captured, and more than 1,300 light and heavy artillery pieces of various types were seized. The retreating armored forces were subjected to orbital bombardment by the Xuanshui Federation, and only a small number of sporadic armored vehicles were evacuated.

The flying unit's retreat speed was indeed fast enough, but the nearest airport was also razed to the ground by orbital bombing. There should be a secret airport of the Red Maple Republic on this planet, but if the pilots retreated there, it would be equivalent to helping the orbital bombing guide the target.

Therefore, many pilots chose to parachute, abandon their vehicles and return to base to ensure that the secret airport would not be destroyed so as to prepare for continued combat.

Yes, the counterattack will definitely come, and it is likely to come faster than expected, but the Xuanshui Federation has achieved its combat objective and captured the control center of the star gate.

At present, some infantry are still fighting and clearing out the enemy forces inside the control center, but they are mainly shouting at them to come out and surrender voluntarily. The battle has basically ended at this point.

The vast majority of them are new recruits, and it is very likely that they shot and killed someone for the first time in their lives here.

Some people were cheering for victory with great enthusiasm, while others were dejected. Although they had won the battle, they walked aimlessly between the trenches, picking up the bones of their comrades.

The assault landing ship was still patrolling the nearby air to prevent sneak attacks during the enemy's counterattack, while the Swan landed on a large flat grassland three kilometers away from the front line.

The subsequent supply ships and orbital airdrops dropped a large amount of supplies. The Swan's anti-aircraft guns never stopped firing in this battle, providing the most powerful firepower support. Of course, this consumption was also very large. Currently, the crew and logistics supply personnel are carrying supplies on board.

Alyssa sat next to an open hatch on the side of the Swan, swinging her legs and lighting a cigar.

During war, tobacco has a higher priority than food supply. It can greatly relieve tense nerves. Many non-smokers will become heavy smokers after returning from the battlefield.

Alyssa doesn't usually smoke. She has been following her grandfather on the starship since she was a child, watching all kinds of battles. She thought she had developed quite strong nerves.

In fact, if it was a simple fleet decisive battle, Alyssa would not have any mental pressure, but the cruelty of ground combat vividly explained to everyone how terrible the casualties of wars after the industrial age are.

Not far from where the Swan landed was the newly built field hospital. The painful moans of the wounded were like devilish sounds piercing through one's brain, making one feel cold in the heart.

Not to mention that if Alyssa just turned her head, she could see human body parts on the nearby grass. Some were just bones, and some were burnt black, making it impossible to tell what part they were.

Alyssa, who had been working in the recycling business since she was a child, thought she could kill without blinking an eye. However, in fact, no matter how vicious a killer is, after taking a walk on the battlefield, he would feel that he was still too naive.

At this moment, a shadow blocked the sunlight. Alyssa looked up and saw four shuttles using suspension mode and steel cables to lift the Manta Ray over.

The Manta hit the mountain wall. It was fortunate that it did not fall down. This also shows that Li Chengxi is really capable. The pilot in charge of the lifting said that under the same conditions, they would not have been able to complete the forced landing at the lowest cost.

Hall was picked up first and was now being examined in the infirmary to see if he had any problems such as concussion or internal bleeding that could easily be caused by a forced landing.

When the Manta was hoisted back and placed on the grass, a large group of mechanics led by Fang Lanyin rushed over and took a close look.

Alyssa looked at them from a distance, and judging from her expression, she didn’t feel optimistic.

The performance of the Manta was top-notch a thousand years ago, but now, its performance is not even as good as the modified civilian shuttle. It's just that Li Chengxi is more comfortable driving this thing, otherwise it should have been replaced and the Manta would have been sent to the museum. The variable wing was completely broken, the engine on one side was destroyed, and the forced landing caused the body structure itself to deform. Thanks to the empty cargo hold at the rear of the Manta, it played a buffering role, and the liquefied magic power on the Manta was not much at that time, otherwise it would not be surprising that it exploded on the spot during the forced landing.

But judging from what Fang Lanyin said, it seems that this thing can still be repaired, but it won't be able to take off again in the short term.

After the Manta was hoisted back, Sophia and others who were sent to break into the control center also returned in the shuttle.

Alyssa sat by the hatch and waved to the group of people who were getting off the shuttle, motioning them to go to the infirmary for a check-up.

Due to the loss of the Manta, Sofia and her team who came out of the control center had to fight guerrilla warfare with the remaining Red Republic Army on the mountain. Fortunately, at this time a friendly shuttle that landed directly from orbit got rid of the entanglement, discovered Sofia and her team, and provided close-ground fire support, otherwise it would be difficult for them to come back intact.

But then again, the battle here is over for the time being, but Alyssa has no idea what the battle situation is like in the void.

After communicating with friendly forces in orbit, they said that the main fleet was still entangled with the Red Maple Republic Army, but they were not sure what the specific situation was.

The battle on the ground is urgent, but it is just the icing on the cake. If the fleet loses, everyone on the ground will become a target.

Having said that, Alyssa was still a little worried.

Alyssa chose to join this war that did not belong to her because it was the fastest way to settle accounts with the Red Maple Republic, but after calming down and thinking about it carefully, she began to doubt whether her decision was right.

After all, she is responsible for the lives of a whole ship of people.

When she was a recycler, Alyssa didn't feel this, because at that time she was basically fighting pirates and her peers, the intensity was very low, and Alyssa was confident that no one could defeat her.

But after joining the war, Alyssa realized how small her ship was on the entire battlefield.

Shaking her head, Alyssa threw away the trace of regret in her heart. Since she had done it, she had to do it to the end. Alyssa was not a person who regretted easily.

This war is still going on and will continue until one side surrenders completely.

"Are you free? I have something to tell you."

Li Chengxi's voice came from her personal terminal, interrupting her thoughts.

Alyssa lazily took a puff of her cigar and said casually:

"What do you want? Tell me first. I can't apply for something that's too difficult."

"I don't mean anything else. I just want to inform you that I will join this war."

"Cough cough!"

Alyssa was choked and almost couldn't breathe...
